Stampin’ Up! To A Wild Rose!

Posted on June 13, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! In between VBS craft evenings, I've been working on invitations for a shower for my second son, Logan, and his fiance', Faith. The wedding is less than two months away, and I'm going shopping for my dress today, so wish me luck!

Today I'm sharing the front of the invitation with the Wild Rose stamp set:

The back side of the invite will be printed on the computer.

I used Seaside Spray, a 2019/2020 In Color, with Night of Navy and Mint Macaron for my color palette.

To A Wild Rose was on my list of "must order firsts"! The flower is a 3-step stamping process, but I chose to only use the outline and the middle flower layer to create the roses. I added Mint Macaron leaves to fill in between the blooms.

There are coordinating dies to cut out the flowers and leaves, but I didn't use them on this project. Instead, I used a Stitched Labels Die to highlight the "bride & groom" from the Well Written Dies. I adhered the words with a thin layer of Multipurpose Liquid Glue and used the Take Your Pick tool to add the tiny dot for the "i" in bride.

Stampin’ Up! So In Love!

Posted on January 7, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! An absolutely gorgeous suite in the Occasions Catalog is called "Falling In Love". It's not Valentine; think engagements, weddings, and anniversaries, feminine, fresh, and spring-y!

I made this card at the November Stampin' Up! OnStage Local in Kansas City, featuring a Falling In Love Designer Paper layer over a Softy Sky base. We used So Detailed Thinlets to cut the front band.

The intricate detailing was easily cut using the Precision Base Plate. A Falling In Love Embellishment and Very Vanilla 1/4" Satin Ribbon are gorgeous additions.

For my card I used Blushing Bride and Very Vanilla, embossing the vanilla with the Lovely Lace folder.

I cut the band from Blushing Bride cardstock using the Precision Base Plate, which makes tiny pieces come out easily. The stamped flower is from So In Love. I partially cut it with the die, then finished with my snips. LOVE these embellishments!

The greeting is simply stamped on a rectangle of Very Vanilla and tucked underneath.

This project was a sample created for a friend's wedding invitation. We are going in another direction, which is why I can show you this now. I used a "postcard" layout to reduce weight and thickness. The back side is simply stamped in the corners to leave room to print the invitation.
